    I'm not even a huge football fan in general, but I thought I'd make it interesting and bet. Had a bad feeling after first two possessions were three-and-outs. Oh well, at least I didn't gamble with my mod savings :cool:

    Kap is the most over-rated, and one of the most inaccurate passers I've ever seen. It looked like he mis-took Sherman for a Niner, TWICE. Threw it right to him. Only one of every 4 of his passes has any chance of being caught .... by a fellow teammate.

    As a 49er fan I was very upset when they gave him that huge contract and he has proven all season he is way overrated.

    Problem is he isn't running the ball. When he actually commits to running and actually tucks the ball instead of throwing a rushed pass he does well. Otherwise he makes really bad throws and is sloppy.

    I love Sherman, the first pick wasn't anything special but the second he covered the receiver perfectly. Sure Kap threw a shitty pass but Sherman positioned himself perfectly, you can't deny that.

    I just got a PM on T4R from a new member that has been pissing off a ton of people for not searching or researching anything before making new posts. He basically lists off 10-15 questions in a row that are very simple to answer by spending 1 minute searching. His first post asked about a 4 speed (manual) 5 cylinder sport 4Runner. The kid knows nothing, but puts no effort into finding the answers and asks me answer the following questions....

    If you have some time, just give these some answers, THANKS SO VERY MUCH!



    1. What is the difference between 4 and 5 speed?

    2. Do years 2000-2002 sport edtions only come in 4 speed?

    3. Do you have more speed or power , or is it better to have 5 speed?

    4. Do you happen to know what the biggest size i can get my tires on a 2002 sport without it rubbing? I will probally get a 3" Lift with this also, so take that into account.

    5. Do they make lifts where you can slightly adjust the lift level but turning the shock or what ever it is? So if your lift is off by a littlebit you can lower or higher it?

    6. So, ive helped a friend install a lift on his 97 on the rear of it. He just had the springs/coils and then a shock. Do people ever put shocks inbetween the springs, or is that just up front. ( Sorry im not super familiar with what you call what, when it comes to lift's)

    7. Why are these tires so exspensive? They are Pitbul Rockers, which seem to be 300-400$.
    https://www.google.com/search?q=35x...i57.587j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8

    8. Those and Nitto Mud grapplers are the most "manly" looking tires ive found. Are there any similar to these but cheaper? They both seem to be 300-400$

    9. What determines the price of a wheel? Is it just the brand? Does it get more expensive when they wheel size increases?

    10. What would i need to do to have my wheels pop out similar to these? Where the sides are like 1-2" more far out than the fender flares? [BUT MY FENDER FLARES WOULD BE WIDER THAN HIS] : 11. Can you make your tires look wider from the rims you buy? Or do rims not affect anything?

    12. Can Tires width make your tire look like its farther out past the fender flares?

    13. Is there any danger or problems that might occur when lifting a vehicle, or using spacers, or big tires? Like things breaking, horrible mileage, rubbing.. etc?

    14. How often should you wax and polish your vehicle? Can it protect from sun damage?

    15. If i get a new 4runner, i don't want the top of it or any part to start peeling or losing its clear coat from sun damage, and i'm not sure if it will be under a garage when i go to college. So whats the best way to protect it?

    16. Can i basically spray down my whole undercarrage and wheel wells with rubberized undercoating? Is there any wires or parts you should never spray that on?

    17. Whats the difference between a Muffler and a Exaust Tip?

    18. What do both do? Just change the sound of your vehicle right? When it accelerates?

    19. After a long time probaly like 50-150k Miles, dont you need to swap out your brakes for new ones? Or is it just the break pads?

    20. Because i was wondering, if i had to change out my breaks if i could just upgrade to Tundra Brakes then, and it wouldn't cost much more right?

    21. When selling a Vehicle online, and someone offers me cash, but lives far away that they dont want to come out to test drive it, is that safe? Because what if they send the money and then take it back once they get the vehicle?

    22. What is a Diff Drop?

    The 9ers are having some really fundamental problems. Forget running the ball, they need to start playing the basics better. They need to stop taking stupid penalties, and they need to get their shit together prior to the snap-look how many times they've taken a TO because they cannot get their shit together before the play clock runs out.
